Due to the lateral gene transfer, the phylogenetic tree may be inadequate for representing the evolution of Influenza A (H1N1) virus. This work employs the distance invariant manif...
Previous work has shown the perhaps surprising result that, for any binary phylogenetic tree T , there is a set of four characters that define T . Here we deal with the general ca...
Background: Results of phylogenetic analysis are often visualized as phylogenetic trees. Such a tree can typically only include up to a few hundred sequences. When more than a few...

We propose the use of scatter search with path relinking for the inference of phylogenetic trees. Solutions are here represented as trees whose leaves span the set of species unde...
Driven by novel biological wet lab techniques such as pyrosequencing there has been an unprecedented molecular data explosion over the last 2-3 years. The growth of biological seq...
